Black wallpapers when fences 3.0 is enabled

May 30, 2016 4:54:03 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

When I am using Fences 3.0 my wallpapers turn black randomly and to fix the issue I have to "refresh" my desktop. A few seconds later the same thing happens. When I disable Fences I do not have this issue. I am on Windows 10 x64.

Three monitors?

What resolutions?

Some wallpaper changer that shuffles?

Yes I have three monitors. Two are 1920x1200 and the other in the middle is 2560x1440.

I have this same issue on Windows 10 with Fences 3 enabled. Nothing would fix it other than uninstalling Fences. Single 4k monitor here with a single wallpaper applied.

Have either of you installed a codec pack?

Try this.

Most of us around here use it. Microsoft doesn't provide codecs anymore...

But then, I see this is about Fences, not Deskscapes, my bad. It still can't hurt....

Didn't help. Problem still persists.

It's best to contact support so we can see what might be interfering with Fences.  https://esupport.stardock.com/index.php?/default_import/Tickets/Submit

I personally am on Windows Insider build 14366 when this issue first occurred. The issue does not occur on my other PC, a Surface Pro 3, which is on the official Windows 10 Pro release 1511. I know Insider builds are not officially supported, but this bug should be passed on to the development team as it will soon become a bug if it is still present when the Anniversary Edition is officially released next month if Stardock and/or Microsoft do not resolve it before then.
